A simple three ingredients recipe that's a very good use of the sweet peaches I bought at the farmers market this morning. They shouldn't be too sweet though, you want them a bit firm so they keep their shape. Cut the peaches in half, remove the pits and scoop out the red part to make bigger cavities. Mix enough honey into about half a cup ground almonds to form a paste, and fill the peaches. Bake at 350F for about 20-25 minutes, and voilà.. how can something so simple be so good?

Once in a while I get lucky at concocting dinner with whatever is in my fridge. Those times when it turns out pretty good, I feel like I won the lottery or something, I just want to tell someone! So that's what I'll do from now on, right here. For this dish I had a few large frozen shrimps, cut mangoes that were not ripe enough to be good eaten just like that, half a pack of baby spinach, leftover rice, and half of an onion. I started with the usual, saute the onion in olive oil. No wine or coconut milk in my fridge, so to add flavor I used some fresh ginger, grated, and also a small clove of garlic (more ginger than garlic). As a liquid to add moisture thank goodness I had half a lemon sitting there, it added just the right zing. Add mangoes, spinach, and shrimps, and voila!
